I don't really see the need for the overhead and potential issues of reading the sys.all_columns view.

Are they covering indexes? Just having a nonclustered index on a joining column(s) is often not useful for SQL, unless that index fully covers the query.

I prefer to use CROSS APPLY to assign an alias name, like below. Just to show the capability, I also used a CROSS APPLY to get the CONCAT'd column value:...
